A lot of the same rules apply on scooters and my motorcycle license guide that I bought before obtaining it went over a lot of these rules. I wish more cyclists got this kind of refresher on blind spots. On a bike I am hyper aware like I am on a scooter, but when I'm on my scoot I can always see much more clearly how very distracted drivers are. I almost got taken out by a student driver in the school parking lot of all places yesterday. She was tearing out of one of the parking rows and nearly hit me at 20 mph because she didn't stop and look. The same day, I rode for two miles behind a woman driving about 20 mph texting/surfing the web the whole time on a 30-40 mph road.
Stay aware and stay safe. The negligence of others is insane.
